C'mon let's stick up for the over 50s. Who are your heart-throbs. Let's say over 50. Preferably well over. And alive!

For me:
Helen Mirren
Albert Finney
Charlotte Rampling
Joan Bakewell
Clive James (I hope he's still alive!)
Anthony Hopkins
Felicity Kendal
Harry Belafonte (he doesn't need to sing)
James Dyson (Designer)
Richard Rogers (Architect)

Now that would be the basis for a fun party! Now where's that thread on favourite cocktail recipes?

I live a sheltered life grin But nobody controls what goes on in my head; certainly I don't! gringrin

...he's 58! Hurrah. I bags him; I bags him......

crimson Wed 07-Nov-12 21:14:01

Oh golly gosh; forgot my secret [no longer] crush; Rich Hall..is he 50 yet?

crimson Wed 07-Nov-12 21:12:40

I didn't know Martin Shaw was of a tree hugging disposition? I went off him when he aged and got a bit portly but that has rekindled my interest. Rufus Sewell is quite cute as well [but not old enough?].

NfkDumpling Wed 07-Nov-12 18:44:53

Sean Bean. Nobody has mentioned Sean Bean. Have I got him all to myself?

Martin Shaw is quite nice too and I approve of his green beliefs.

Jo , Jo , what can u mean ?

I think Isthis was more interested in sex appeal, JO5

jO5 Wed 07-Nov-12 17:43:11

Yes.

I go for intellect and clever minds too. innocent smile

I am impressed with his intellect and clever mind, not his appearance, but I don't think they are warts – just lumpy bits. smile Martin Shaw – what?

jO5 Wed 07-Nov-12 17:34:52

has the poor man got some warts on his cheeks? (Ian Rankin that is)

jO5 Wed 07-Nov-12 17:32:20

Ana!! Stop it now!! grin

absentgrana Wed 07-Nov-12 17:30:44

Ian Rankin?

Ana Wed 07-Nov-12 17:09:50

John Hannah - that lovely Scots accent...and I find him rather attractive!
(Just turned 50 this year)

jO5 Wed 07-Nov-12 16:51:04

jO5 Wed 07-Nov-12 16:50:49
